I am not sold on it as a legitament route to build though.  I get people have been hyping GIles and Josh Jackson but Lebron, Curry and Durant are really the only 3 guys who have been put in that stratosphere the last 10  years or so.

Maybe we do need to target Blake or Cousins but those guys aren't in that stratosphere and havent been able to beat the likes of those guys playing in Sac or LA.

There's always Brad Stevens.

We have 2 shots at the draft the next 2 years.  This team is not going to be bad.  People need to get that out of their heads.  NJ may also not be bottom of the barrel but should be lottery bound.  That is no guarantee though with the east as bad as it is.  Teams can have surprising years and get the 8th seed.

OKC is gonna need to start their own rebuild...any thoughts about trading the remaining Brooklyn picks for the sake of obtaining Russel Westbrook?

That would be incredibly stupid.  Danny should have drafted Dunn and had the next Wade/Westbrook.
